Reviews
Good to know
- Know before you go ・The itinerary order is subject to change depending on traffic, weather, or any operational reasons. ・If any of the places on the itinerary are closed, you will visit an alternative place. ・No other paid attractions are visited except for Kenrokuen Garden and Nomura House (e.g., the interior paid areas of Kanazawa Castle are not included). ・Please wear comfortable walking shoes. While we use a taxi for the longest 2.6 km (1.6 miles) leg from the Samurai District to the Geisha District, this is primarily a walking tour covering Kenrokuen Garden, Kanazawa Castle (a 100m walk from Kenrokuen), the Samurai District (a 700m walk from the Castle), and the Geisha District. ・No refunds or changes will be given to latecomers and no-shows.
